India Post Introduces DigiPIN for Precise Digital Location Addressing
India Post has launched DigiPIN, a new digital address system assigning unique 10-character alphanumeric codes to approximately 4-by-4-metre geographic grids. Developed with IIT Hyderabad and ISRO's National Remote Sensing Centre, DigiPIN offers precise location identification using latitude and longitude. Unlike the broader six-digit PIN code, DigiPIN enhances accuracy for deliveries, public services, and emergency response without replacing existing postal codes, serving as an additional addressing layer across urban and rural areas.
